Urolithin A boosts muscle strength and endurance in middle age

Urolithin A supplementation enhances muscle strength, aerobic endurance, and mitochondrial efficiency in middle-aged adults. It activates mitophagy, improves walking distance, and reduces inflammation markers, supporting muscle function and longevity. The findings highlight its potential as a nutritional intervention for healthy ageing​

Urolithin A and its role in optimising ageing health

Urolithin A, derived from gut metabolism, enhances mitochondrial function, reduces inflammation, and improves muscle strength and endurance. It offers potential benefits for healthy ageing but does not affect body composition or overall physical function. Further research is needed to explore its impact on various systems and its long-term benefits.

The impact of TRP channel inhibition on longevity

Aminoglycoside antibiotics, such as streptomycin, can inhibit TRP channels, disrupting calcium signalling essential for muscle and adipose tissue development. This interference may impair metabolic balance, potentially affecting healthspan and longevity.
